Although there are many other desert golf courses in the Phoenix area, Apache Creek Golf Club offers one challenging championship course that requires the use of every club. The golf course features wide open fairways and undulating greens that are sloped back to front, some are also double-tiered. There are also numerous sand and grass bunkers protecting the fairways and greens. Extensive mounding on the course cause uneven lies and water hazards come into play on a few holes. The most difficult of the several demanding holes on this golf course, is the lengthy par-5, 10th hole. Apache Creek Golf Club also boasts two practice greens, a pitching and chipping green with a sand trap, and a large driving range with various targets.

Least expensive course around

Easy to find. Easy check in. Carts can’t go to car. Clean carts with sand bottles and ball and club washers. Water at start. Water buckets for towels some tees getting beat and a number that are quite not level in spots. Fairways pretty good roughs with some grass but spotty. Bunkers actually have a little sand. Greens remain pretty good. Played in just under 4 sometimes difficult going left as you leave late in the day

Apache Creek is a great mix of green and desert

I was challenged with the desert landscape, but really enjoyed the course. Don't take the greens for granted either as none of them are easy. Pace of play was great.

Scenic course

This course offers some of the most beautiful sunsets with superstition mountain background. We didn’t tee off until 3pm with slow

Pace of play we only got to hole 14 before sunset. It was a fun course.

Unexpected Surprise

The conditions of the tees, fairways, and greens was unexpectedly good. Off the fairway you will be on desert, rocks, etc. The course is just flat, back-and-forth golf. The starter was friendly, and water was provided to take out on the course. I booked a Hot Deal and managed to get it at $70. I don't think I would pay much more than that for this course.

Cloudy day

Course in decent condition, pace a bit slow on most holes. We were the first group out behind the Men's league. They were quite slow on the greens putting out at times. Maybe they don't play ready golf.

The weather was a bit cool at times as sky was overcast but rain stayed away. A good day was had by all.

Course was in poor shape at best. Didn't mind 10 minute wait at t-off. 3 some in front of us held up play. Ranger talked to them but it did no good. people behind us kept hitting into us. just not a good overall experience. Will not play this course again.

Fairways a little sparse

Course is not in great shape. Fairways don't have a lot of grass on them, hence the reason for 90 degrees. Green's were in good shape though. Price was way too high, but that's basically everywhere.

Least expensive to play and pretty decent

Easy to find. Easy check in. Clean carts with sand bottles. Water for us at start. Water buckets for towels. Started a few minutes late but played in just under 4 hours. Tees fairly good but not always flat Fairways pretty good. Roughs with spotty grass or desert. Bunkers actually have some sand. Greens pretty good and almost always some curve. Can’t take carts to car. Sometimes difficult going left out of driveway at days end
